Changes may be coming for the "universities Bible", aka Times Higher Education, and its rankings, events, consultancies and so on.
It seems that TES Global is selling off its very lucrative cash cow and that, in addition to private equity firms, the RELX group which owns Scopus and Clarivate Analytics are in a bidding war.
Scopus currently provides the data for the THE rankings and Clarivate used to. If one of them wins the war there may be implications for the THE rankings, especially for the citations indicator.
If anybody has information about what is happening please send a comment.
